LeMar by Aspasios

In the heart of Barcelona we were a bit confused in the beginning. The rooms are on one floor which as it seemed to be were offices in the younger days. Rooms quite espacious and clean. Perfect for a stopover before going on a bigger trip. Lots of restaurants in its surroundings and sagrada familia just a 30 minute walk away

We recently stayed at LaMer, and our experience was far from what was advertised by ForgetMeNot. It's important for consumers to be aware of these issues before making a reservation. Firstly, it's worth noting that ForgetMeNot and LaMer are sister hotels, a fact not transparently disclosed to consumers. This lack of transparency can be seen as deceptive and raises questions about the integrity of their marketing. Moreover, LaMer, touted as a hotel, falls short of basic expectations. The bathroom facilities are essential and basic, resembling more of a hostel than a hotel. The lack of amenities and services makes it feel more like an Airbnb experience, and certainly not deserving of the rank it holds in Barcelona. I believe it's crucial for consumers to be informed accurately about the nature of their stay. I encourage fellow travelers to carefully consider their options before booking at ForgetMeNot and LaMer. In my opinion, their current ranking is misleading, and potential guests should be aware that the experience might not align with typical hotel standards in Barcelona. If you are a budget-conscious student, you can stay here and save some money. By sharing our experiences and concerns, we can contribute to a more transparent and accountable travel industry. Let's ensure that others are well-informed and can make choices based on honest representations of accommodations.

I originally booked via Agoda.com for a different hotel and apparently there was a “glitch” on the end of Agoda. My reservation was lost and I was rebooked to stay at a different hotel at, LeMar by Aspasios. This alternate hotel, LeMar by Aspasios is absolutely terrible. It looks like a hostel. In fact I am fairly certain there are many hostels out there much better than LeMar by Aspasios. It’s a dirty place and it smells like mold and mildew. I’m not sure how/why this hotel could possibly get a high rating on Agoda.com. This hotel is gross. There are 8 rooms in this “hotel” which are all located on the same floor. The check in is right outside the door of our room. It is noisy and loud since the window faces a main intersection. When the neighboring room flushes their toilet, u can hear it. Ha ha ha. Nauseating. You can hear people walking around outside of the room which is pretty much one big central lobby for the 8 rooms which share the floor. A bit scary and a bit creepy. Overall this hotel is no where resembling what was advertised. I will pay for the one night and I plan on checking out in the morning. Again, I have no clue how LeMar by Aspasios could be getting such high ratings. This place is not even at a level of a 2 star establishment. I expect my credit for the unused rooms at Aspasio to be refunded to me. Will update the review later to indicate if I have been provided the refund of the unused nights or not. I have been a loyal customer of Agoda for quite some time. I expect Agoda to do the right thing. Do yourself a favor, if you’re reading this and you think I’m joking, go head and book yourself to stay at LeMar by Aspasios and then you can write your own review.

Bit of an odd concept. No front desk. Just scan a qr code at a key box and receive your room keys. Quaint lift. Must have been nearly 100 years old. Generally good basic facilities but clean and secure. Just what was needed.

My advice to others is don’t pay for breakfast we didn’t but walked past it each morning and was poor, Air conditioner in our room leaked water onto floor whole time which was clearly ongoing issue with cracked skirting and told tall story as no more than excuse why owner wasn’t fixing issue we felt this was safety issue should someone slip

Our trip at LeMar Barcelona went amazing. The loction was a short walking distance to a lot of shopping, dining, and metro stops.

This is a hostal that is a bit updated with white paint and a new bed cover. Bathroom OK but the room we had was very small. Great location.

We had a 4 night perfect stay. Location was good. Nearby good restaurants and metrostations. Service hotel was very good. Communication via mail and face to face was ok. Room was space enough and clean. Entrance with codes works perfect for us.

Check in was difficult. Read the information, they only have staff 4 hours a day. The instructions to get in are not well written. Their help number was ineffective. Breakfast is NOT worth the price. Maybe I should have read the information and reviews a bit better. Would NEVER stay at this place again.
